Food so bad you'll forget you photoblog for weeks.

Reasonably acceptable mu-shu pork, spring rolls and crispy eggplant from FuJin on Hawthorne, hours before Montezuma had his watery revenge on us. (Having tried a little pork, I've declared it no great shakes and can move on with my life peacefully.) The eggplant tasted more like fried bananas than crispy eggplant -- quite a feat had it been intentional. Finally, you know this country is months away from a full-scale collapse into a third-world society when greasy-spoon Chinese joints start charging extra for rice.

The only thing that would make eating here acceptable would be if your ass exploded on the floor before you got your check (& no fortune cookies), as their toilet is scarcely better. Taken on the 23rd.
